2-Ethylhexanol
Application(s):
In the production of:• low-volatility esters which are then used
as plasticisers in plastics• additives which improve thermal stability
and oxidation resistance of plastics• surface active agents• anti-foaming agents for the textile
and paper-making industries• solvents for extraction processes• brake fl uids• fuel improvers (2-ethylhexyl nitrate)• 2-ethylhexyl acrylate• ethoxylated mixes (ethylene oxide derivatives)• auxiliaries for agriculture• components for fi re-retardant formulations
(brominated derivatives), cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.
General requirements:
2-Ethylhexanol is a clear and colourless liquid, with the specifi c odour.
It is also used as:
• low-volatility solvent for vegetable oils, animal fats, resins, waxes and petrochemical products
• component of low-volatility solvent systems which are used in the dye industry and/or in the paint and lacquer industry (e.g. in printer’s inks, in stamp inks, in dip painting systems, etc.)
• additive which improves plastic formability and gloss of thermosetting plastics and hot-laid linings
• dispersing and wetting agent in colour pastes.
